 <H3>Modes</H3>
BBWin can work with 2 modes :
<UL>
<LI> the local mode : used by default. Status are sent to the Hobbit/BigBrother server
<LI> the centralized mode : to be used with the Hobbit server. a report is send to the hobbit server via the clientdata channel
</UL>
 To enable the centralized mode, check the mode option in the BBWin.cfg file.
<H3>Notes</H3>
<UL>
<LI>Some agents which are not compatible with the centralized mode will be launch with the local mode. Examples (externals)
<LI>The centralized mode use the bbwin tmp directory to save the report file and the client-local.cfg file from the hobbit server
</UL> 
<H3>Example :</H3>

<pre class="Config">
&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?&gt;
